  1. Mai visto un video noioso come questo, con commenti adatti a un deficiente, sono uscito dal tornello sto uscendo dalla stazione, questo è un armadio! Ma chiunque è in grado di distinguere un armadio da una caffettiera! Potessi mettere dieci pollici verdi li metterei!

  2. last time I took Tohoku shinkansen in gran class was 2 years ago and the seats were visibly worn out and tired. I see it's still the case. Are there any plans for refurbishing them or will they have to soldier on until E10 comes?

  3. Это гугл так переводит или это бред какой-то?что это за вид стоимостью миллионов долларов.

  4. Do they offer Bourbon Whiskey?
    edit: i dont really like tongue 🙁 sorry but sendai has a lot more to offer….. and hokkaido offers the best sake of all of japan …in my opinion ^^
